Abstract :
Since cross traffic in inner city intersections is potentially dangerous, its early detection is desirable. In this paper an image-based driver-assistant system is presented. The investigation of optical flow, computed from an image sequence, recorded by a single pan-tilt camera, is used as basis to this system. Its goal is to direct the driver´s attention to moving objects in inner city intersections.
